Why must I pay a booking fee?
Tattoo artists are self employed - which means they manage every aspect of their job by themselves. Most of these jobs are usually done by a single person in a big company, where we do everything ourself.
We are a Receptionist | Customer Service | Graphic Designer | Social Media Manager | HR | Cleaner and Tattoo 'Technicians'
Tattoo artists only get paid when they do the actual tattoo and part of that goes towards paying a percentage to the shop and buying the many supplies we need to operate.
If you cancel or postpone, the artist is not only losing money for the day, but all of the work spent emailing and consulting you, designing your artwork, and making sure supplies are kept in stock would have not been paid for. The booking fee only covers a small fraction of this.
This is why you are required to pay booking fee, and it ensures the artist at least has a little something to cover the work they've already done.
